Gm Brothers Home Improvement Inc

Fifty ratings on Thumbtack averaging 4.9, with forty-nine of those jobs booked through the platform — for a Lynn outfit with one name on the truck, that is a lot of fences and porches. GM Brothers Home Improvement is a Lynn corporation; BBB records it as incorporated in 2019 and run by Ismael Guzman, and fence-and-gate installation and deck or porch repair are what people hire it for. Thumbtack has handed the company Top Pro status three times — 2021, 2022 and 2024. The most recent customer, in July 2026, said the crew did not just take the order: they explained the options and suggested what actually suited the job, and the work was worth calling them again for. That same July review carries the one blemish worth knowing about. One of the workers relieved himself in the customer's yard, and the company answered publicly that this was not the standard it sets for its crew and would be dealt with right away. Where things get slippery is the paperwork around the company. Angi and HomeAdvisor both claim 16 years of experience, Thumbtack says 11, and BBB has the business starting in January 2019. Those two Angi-family pages also carry an identical 5.0 from the same three reviews, so that is one set of comments appearing twice rather than two sources agreeing. Even the basics wobble: BBB lists three employees at 124 Cottage St, Thumbtack lists one, and the Angi contact address is on Chatham Street. On licensing, BuildZoom lists a Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration numbered 197707 for the company, and the Thumbtack profile claims HIC registration along with workers' compensation and liability coverage. Both are the listing's word, not a state check, so ask for the registration number and a certificate of insurance and confirm them at Consumer Affairs before signing. A reasonable call for a straightforward fence, gate, deck or porch job around Lynn, particularly if you want someone who will walk you through material choices — Spanish is spoken and estimates are free according to its Angi page. For anything at remodel scale, the written history is thinner than the 4.9 implies: eight comments across five sites since 2019.
